Fabric
If you haven't yet, you will need fabric for your Hakama. Traditionally they were either a solid color for casual and stripes for something a little more formal. If you need ideas for what is most traditional, I suggest browsing Okinawa Soba's Flicker page for ideas. The colors might not be right, but it will demonstrate what patterns are best.
I am using a hefty synthetic khaki green fabric, it is not very traditional, but has a nice earthy quality to it.
